What an absolutely wonderful day we shared with our beautiful Little Leaf Learners Bush Kindy.

The children explored the Messy Meadow Mud Kitchen, Sweetwater Splash Zone, Barnyard Builders and the Creative Corral. The hobby horse races around our big round yard were full of laughter, and the teepee quickly became a favourite.

Our beautiful Ebony was right in the middle of all the fun, happily soaking up every gentle pat and cuddle.

Jeremy and Velvet completely stole the show, enjoying endless brushes, pats and cuddles before the children met our fully licensed Blue Tongue lizards, Buddy and Ryan.

Then it was off to the treehouse before one of the most magical moments of the day… watching Velvet, Jeremy and Kira galloping and playing together in the big paddock. Seeing horses simply being horses is something truly special.

Before finishing our day, we fed gentle giant Moose, shared cuddles with Ruby and wandered down to the creek to soak in one last adventure together.

Days like these remind us how important nature, animals, imaginative play and unhurried childhood really are.

A huge thank you to our wonderful trainee, Alana, for all your hard work and enthusiasm today. We are so grateful to have you as part of the Cowboy Crew.

Finally, thank you to the incredible educators, children and families of Little Leaf Learners. If you’re looking for a Bush Kindy that encourages children to swap screens for sunshine, fresh air and meaningful outdoor adventures, we cannot recommend Little Leaf Learners highly enough.

We loved having you all at Ponies in Paradise and can’t wait to welcome you back.

Happy International Women’s Day

My heart is so full of gratitude, full of admiration, and full of love for every single woman in my life! Inst stopped me at 20 pics and tags🤦🏼‍♀️, there is so many of you!

You are all outstanding. Not just today, in the quiet, ordinary moments too, the way you show up, the way you carry others, the way you rise, again and again, with grace and fire and all the mess!

As Mum of two girls, everything I do, every late night, every dream I chase is for them & women. For you. To help every one of us rise higher, together. To help you navigate the lows, and find the highest highs of life. That is my why and It always will be.

This week, I also lost my last grandparent. And my girls carried me through the deepest grief with the simplest, purest love imaginable. Their presence and nurturing of me. Their tiny wee arms, their sweaty kisses, & gentle hearts.

They reminded me that love doesn’t need to have the right words it just needs to show up with the feeling of connection and feminine nurturing.

And I hope, with everything I have, that I can do the same for each of you one day: show up, hold space & help you rise.

Happy International Women’s Day. You are loved 🤍
